New International Version

¹⁴ The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God^(A) but considers them foolishness,^(B) and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. ¹⁵ The person with the Spirit^(C) makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, ¹⁶ for,

But we have the mind of Christ.^(E)

The Church and Its Leaders

3 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit^(F) but as people who are still worldly^(G)—mere infants^(H) in Christ. ² I gave you milk, not solid food,^(I) for you were not yet ready for it.^(J) Indeed, you are still not ready. ³ You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling^(K) among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? ⁴ For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,”^(L) are you not mere human beings?
